Default RE: Why do you fly autogyros?

Hi, Phil!

That is me flying both autogyros on the video. It is not a matter of flying skills or well flying machines. It is a matter of video editing. I can choose the clips I want to my video

It took some time get things right to both autogyros but after start they are well behavied (in my opinion). I have no experience on other's autogyros how those fly.

The hub is [link=http://www.autogyro.com/technic/simple-d.htm]simple-d[/link] constructed by the instructions of autogyro.com. I have a round plastic plate in the middle of plywoods. It makes structure stronger. That is the only difference to the original. Blades are 6mm*5cm*50cm clark-y balsa blades. The root is strengthened with thin 0.8mm plywood plates.
